because people are stupid. and that's why avoidable accidents happen every single day.
number one cause of scuba diving deaths is , you guessed it stupidly running out of air. stupid.
same thing.
So it's a movie set, and they use REAL guns because Real guns, especially in a period piece, are the only thing that actually looks REAL.
If you have never been on a movie set, you probably don't know that there is way more down time than actually filming. 50 hours to one. and that's considered efficient.
Here is how accidents happen. Just like a plane crash or any other work place accident.
Stars are BORED. Crews are star struck and want the Stars to like them. Even if you are a gun hater like Baldwin, you are fascinated to see if you can actually hit something with a real bullet. See where I am going here? So you are in the middle of nowhere. Not on a safe range. You set up some beer bottles, where there are plenty of those on any set. And you have some down time FUN. Cause it's a toy that's dangerous, and that makes it an adventure.
And this is EXACTLY what happened. The prop gun that Alec Baldwin MURDERED that commie woman with was just used for "target practice" just off the set for the movie they were making. That's how a real bullet got into a Real gun. and that's why the woman is DEAD. All that happened next was one to be left in the chamber. And one was.
This is negligent homicide. murder 3. Everyone who participated in the target shooting, needs to go to prison. Everyone there had taken a gun safety class, and everyone violated gun safety rules.
They only thing that is going to save them from real time is it's in woketard New Mexico, and I doubt they will be held accountable. sc
Violates about every rule on movie gun safety. The armorer is going to do time for this and I suspect the AD as well.
All guns are supposed to be locked up when in not in use. Even if the cast and crew went target practicing this is on the armorer for a) allowing it - either intentionally or through negligence and b) not verifying that the guns were cold BEFORE bringing them out on set.
Amateur.
My guess is they all go after the gun and ammo manufacturer. Michael Moore just ate a couple of footlongs and downed a gallon of cola and bacon grease to get ready.
Great take.
New Mexico is all in on the film industry. Huge incentives and freebies to get productions Over there. It’s worked well For over a decade.
My point is I agree with you. They probably dont bite the hand that feeds them.
Did you know Epstein had a big spread up by Santa Fe? (I believe)
Slick Willy went there too.
